Chapter 51
Lin Mu learned about Xu Weiwei running away with Lin Xiangshen from Li Nan, and thought that Xu Weiwei had really become quite capable, not even telling her.
She was so angry that she stormed into Xu Weiwei's house. Since she had a spare key to Xu Weiwei's house, and no one answered the door after she knocked, she opened the door herself.
Once inside, she saw a half-eaten takeout order on the table, along with the order slip showing the time of the order. She figured Xu Weiwei must have come back today.
She even went out for a stroll, but why hasn't she come back yet? Logically speaking, Xu Weiwei is a very frugal person and would definitely not waste food.
This unfinished takeout was clearly intended to be eaten after a leisurely stroll, but now it's completely cold and almost inedible, so it's just going to go to waste.
Based on her judgment, something was very likely wrong, so she quickly asked Li Nan for Lin Xiangshen's contact information and asked him about the situation to see if Lin Xiangshen was behind it.
When Lin Xiangshen received the call, he saw that it was Xu Weiwei's boss. He raised an eyebrow and answered the call. Otherwise, given his personality, he would never answer a call from a stranger so casually.
After careful verification from multiple sources, Lin Xiangshen quickly learned that Xu Weiwei had indeed disappeared. He immediately sent his people to search for her, and he was very efficient, quickly finding her on Xu Jia.
After all, Xu Jia had rushed into this kidnapping case without making any prior preparations, which revealed many clues. With careful searching, Lin Xiangshen easily obtained useful leads.
When Lin Xiangshen arrived at the dungeon, he saw that Xu Weiwei's body was almost entirely naked, with her hair, eyebrows, body hair, and all the hair on her body shaved off.
The words "lowly slave" were carved on her face, the left cheek with the word "lowly" and the right cheek with the word "slave." He immediately rushed forward, carefully pulled Xu Weiwei into his arms, and unbuttoned his coat to put it on her.
Seeing that his scheme had been exposed, Xu Jia was filled with regret, regretting that he hadn't killed Xu Weiwei sooner and shouldn't have tormented her for so long. He didn't resist; instead, he remained obedient, maintaining this attitude towards Lin Xiangshen. Only when Lin Xiangshen was away did he dare to unleash his true nature.
After Lin Xiangshen called his private doctor over, he was about to call the police and bring Xu Jia to justice when Qian Hexue rushed in.
She shouted, "What are you doing? Calling the police? No way! He's your brother. He did something wrong. Why can't you, as the older brother, be more understanding?"
"You absolutely cannot let the police come, or I'll kill myself. Your brother is my lifeblood; if he goes to jail, I won't live anymore."
Lin Xiangshen said coldly, "I don't have a brother like that. If you want to die, then go ahead and die. You have to pay the price for doing wrong."
I wasn't the one who was hurt, so I have no right to forgive on someone else's behalf. He dared to kidnap someone; shouldn't he go to jail? How can there be any justice if bad things go unpunished?
Qian Hexue's face was extremely pale as she pleaded, "Xiao Shen, I beg you, your brother really did something wrong this time, but he is your brother, can't you give him another chance? I beg you, don't call the police."
So, you want to marry her and get a marriage certificate, right? I agree. You want to get married, I support you, as long as you let your brother off the hook this time. Okay?
Xu Jia cried out in anguish, "No, Mother He, I'm willing to go to jail just so Shen Ge doesn't marry her! No! No!!"
Qian Hexue comforted him, "Jia'er, be good. Prison is not a place for humans. You can't endure that kind of suffering. We can't go."
Xu Weiwei gently shook Lin Xiangshen's arm. Seeing that Xu Weiwei wanted to say something to him, Lin Xiangshen lowered his head and brought his ear to Xu Weiwei's mouth.
Xu Weiwei murmured softly, "Honey, forget it. I know you and him are good brothers. You've had such a long-standing friendship. I can't just cut it off because of you."
And your mother, I can't let you fall into a state of being abandoned by everyone because of me. Being with me should make your life better, not worse.
"It's okay. I'll be with you every day from now on, so you can protect me, and I'll never be kidnapped by bad guys again."
Lin Xiangshen said with heartache, "How could you forgive him? You've suffered so much. Don't even mention feelings. He and I have never been good brothers."
My mom insisted that I take care of him, and he kept staying by my side and wouldn't leave. Do you remember the first time we recorded this? I slapped him in the face in front of so many people, I didn't give him any face at all, I did it on purpose.
Besides, if he really considered me a brother, then he should have respected you as his sister-in-law instead of kidnapping you and causing you so much serious harm.
I know you're actually concerned about my mom's feelings, but that's unnecessary. My mom has never been good to me; she's always been abusive and verbally abusive. Of course, I've longed for her love, but that's too unattainable; I could never have it.
Besides, I already have you, and I don't need her love anymore. Whether we get married or not is a matter between the two of us, and we don't need her approval at all.
Besides, even if she agrees, it's not genuine, so what's the point of us being here? Don't worry, my dad loves me very much and has been separated from my mom for a long time.
My dad has never divorced me, and it's all for my sake. I admit that before I met you, I always clung to the hope that my mom might one day treat me like her real son and give me maternal love.
But when I met you again, I stopped fantasizing. To break free from this fantasy, I gave myself a long time to wean myself off it.
I take love very seriously. I believe that someone who has unrealistic expectations of maternal love and is still dependent on others is not qualified to have love.
So, during our first meeting, I didn't have any conversation with you. But actually, I had already noticed you; I saw your name on the guest list.
When we restarted recording, I deliberately didn't let Xu Jia follow me because I felt that Xu Jia was not a good person. I had been tolerating him before because of my unrealistic fantasies about my mother.
After facing reality, I stopped indulging in this fantasy. I had long ago accepted the fact that my mother didn't love me. Xu Jia hurt you, and I will definitely send him to prison. We can't let him get away with this, okay?
Xu Weiwei shed tears of emotion, her eyes blurry as she said, "Okay, husband, I'll do whatever you say."
Xu Jia did not escape. After Lin Xiangshen insisted on calling the police, Xu Jia was sent to prison and sentenced to life imprisonment. When the police arrested him, Qian Hexue insisted on going with the police car.
While she was making a scene, Lin Xiangshen left with Xu Weiwei. Only after Xu Weiwei received effective treatment did he tell his father about it. His father understood his subtext and divorced Qian Hexue.
After Xu Weiwei recovered from her injuries, Lin Xiangshen and Xu Weiwei went to get their marriage certificate and held a grand wedding.
Xu Weiwei was very curious as to why Qian Hexue treated Xu Jia so well, even better than her own son.
Lin Xiangshen told her the answer: it was because Qian Hexue's white moonlight was Xu Jia's biological father, and Xu Jia's appearance was almost identical to his father's.
Qian Hexue and Xu Jia's parents have a very good relationship. They are childhood sweethearts who grew up together. Since childhood, Xu Jia's parents have treated Qian Hexue like their own younger sister and doted on her immensely.
Xu Jia's parents were in love with each other, and Qian Hexue had no choice but to marry Lin Xiangshen's father, even though she secretly loved him. In the end, she married Lin Xiangshen's father for money.
Qian Hexue treated Xu Jia so well that she completely regarded him as her father, finding herself a substitute.
When Xu Weiwei heard this story, she was speechless. She never expected that the love stories of the previous generation could be so melodramatic and dramatic.
However, if someone who isn't loved becomes mentally twisted, does bad things, and suffers bad consequences, then they deserve it. Does the absence of love mean one can't live? No matter what, one should be kind, but that doesn't mean one can do whatever one wants under the guise of love. Under no circumstances should one intentionally hurt others.
Many people live life to the fullest, consuming 99% of their energy just to survive. Some even die suddenly from overwork, not because they love their jobs, but simply to earn money and save costs.
